Lately a number of members have been using TCC's PM service to send unsolicited messages to other TCC members. The messages include links to a website that "promises" PayPal. The sender of the messages gets a kickback with every referral, and such a use of the PM service is against TCC's rules.

If anyone sees anything like this at all, please contact a Team Member, including myself. Forward the messages, as well. Names will be kept private.

Much appreciated,Richardaka skatalite

The member who has been spamming via PMs has been dealt with. If anyone receives any unsolicited PMs from members, please forward them to me or anyone else on the TCC Team. Thanks!

Will do.

And I'm sure you'd be glad to know that I don't know what you're talking about. They haven't gotten to me yet!
